== History ==
Mazapan School was founded in the early 1920s by the Standard Fruit Company, today known as Dole. The company had the dilemma of keeping valuable expatriate employees with children in La Ceiba, Honduras. A lack of an American-style school meant children had to be sent to boarding schools in the USA at a young age. This need gave birth to the idea of starting a school. Mazapan School, owned and operated by the company, opened its doors on March 12, 1928, with Grades 1-6 with 38 students.
Today, the Mazapan School is located on of land in the heart of the city. A coeducational, day school, it offers bilingual (English/Spanish) educational programs from grades Nursery through 12 with the continued support of Dole. Upon graduation, Mazapan students are conferred an American High School Diploma, accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS), and a Honduran Bachillerato Diploma, accredited by the Honduran Ministry of Education.
Of the 308 students enrolled, 90% are Honduran, 7% American and 3% third nationals. All graduates are offered admission to universities in the USA, Latin America or Europe, with approximately 50% of the graduates attending American universities and the rest studying in Latin America.
